hooks – Poetry for Change

Thank you for the honor and your hard work.

Dangling Moon

Sitting on the tip of the crescent moon
Dangling her legs, pushing off, swinging
As though the moon embraced her in a cocoon
Of life’s laughter, lighter than lightning,

Brighter than the stars’ brilliance,
A comforter of the soul closer
To heaven’s doors, seating, no coincidence
That the moon hovers, never a loser,

But changes everyday in looks
From crescent to full moon,
Each highlights its own beautiful hooks
That enliven hope like a boon,

A boon from GOD to humanity,
A circle of dazzling blessings
Enrobing my imagination, flowy
Possibilities into dreams, not guessings,

No certainty that the light of poetry shines
To guide her plight into a roadmap
Of strength built on patience, never fines
Her more than she can conquer in a lap.

As she swings on memories that mirror
Her plight of losses that flow
Like the changes in the moon, a bower
For rest as I swing under the full moon’s glow.
